Method of applying layers of source substance over recipient and device for realizing same

Abstract

A method of applying a layer of a source substance over a recipient, consisting in that the substance of the source is converted to gas and then precipitated onto the surface of the recipient, wherein the substance is, according to the invention, applied over at least one intermediate body and then the substance is transferred from the intermediate body onto the recipient.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A device for applying a layer of at least one source substance onto a receipient, utilizing a gaseous carrying agent, comprising: a vessel adapted to house said recipient and said source and to be filled with a gaseous carrying agent   at least one intermediate body having a operational surface capable of condensing said source substance, said body being spatially separated from said source and from said recipient in said vessel:   at least one heater ensuring a specified temperature difference between said source and said intermediate body and between said intermediate body and said recipient; and   a displacement mechanism ensuring location of said operational surface of said intermediate body near the surface of said source, when the substance of said source is applied onto said intermediate body, and location of said operational surface of said intermediate body near the surface of said recipient, when the substance is transferred from said intermediate body onto said recipient.   
     
     
       2. A device as claimed in claim 1, comprising: an axle connecting said intermediate body to said displacement mechanism;   said displacement mechanism ensuring rotation of said intermediate body about said axle.   
     
     
       3. A device as claimed in claim 1, comprising: at least one holder, whereon said source and said recipient are placed;   an axle connecting said holder to said displacement mechanism;   said displacement mechanism ensuring rotation of said holder about said axle.   
     
     
       4. A device as claimed in claim 1, comprising: a rod connecting said intermediate body to said displacement mechanism;   said displacement mechanism ensuring reciprocating motion of said intermediate body.   
     
     
       5. A device as claimed in claim 1, comprising: at least one holder, whereon said source and said recipient are placed;   a rod connecting said holder and said displacement mechanism;   said displacement mechanism ensuring progressive and reciprocating motion of said holder.   
     
     
       6. A device for applying a layer of at least one source substance onto a recipient, utilizing a gaseous carrying agent, comprising: a vessel adapted to house said recipient and said source and to be filled with a gaseous carrying agent;   at least one intermediate body having part of its operational surface capable of condensing said source substance and the other part made of a material impeding condensation of said source substance, said body being spatially separated from said source and from said recipient in said vessel;   at least one heater ensuring a specified temperature difference between said source and said intermediate body and between said intermediate body and said recipient; and   a displacement mechanism ensuring location of said operational surface of said intermediate body near the surface of said source, when the substance of said source is applied onto said intermediate body, as well as location of said operational surface of said intermediate body near the surface of said recipient, when the substance is trasferred from said intermediate body onto said recipient.   
     
     
       7. A device as claimed in claim 6, comprising: an axle connecting said intermediate body to said displacement mechanism;   said displacement mechanism ensuring rotation of said intermediate body about said axle.   
     
     
       8. A device as claimed in claim 6, comprising: at least one holder, whereon said source and said recipient are placed;   an axle connecting said holder to said displacement mechanism;   said displacement mechanism ensuring rotation of said holder about said axle.   
     
     
       9. A device as claimed in claim 6, comprising: a rod connecting said intermediate body to said displacement mechanism;   said displacement mechanism ensuring reciprocating motion of said intermediate body.   
     
     
       10. A device as claimed in claim 6, comprising: at least one holder, whereon said source and said recipient are located;   a rod connecting said holder and said displacement mechanism;   said displacement mechanism ensuring progressive and reciprocating motion of said holder.   
     
     
       11. A device for applying a layer of at least one source substance onto a recipient having portions of complicated patterns on the surface thereof, utilizing a gaseous carrying agent, comprising: a vessel adapted to house said recipient and said source and to be filled with a gaseous carrying agent;   at least one intermediate body having an operational surface capable of condensing said source substance and corresponding in shape to the surface of said recipient, said body being spatially separated from said source and from said recipient in said vessel;   at least one heater ensuring a specified temperature difference between said source and said intermediate body and between said intermediate body and said recipient; and   a displacement mechanism ensuring location of said operational surface of said intermediate body near the surface of said source, when the substance of said source is applied onto said intermediate body as well as location of said operational surface of said intermediate body near the surface of said recipient, when the substance is transferred from said intermediate body onto said recipient.   
     
     
       12. A device as claimed in claim 11, comprising: an axle connecting said intermediate body to said displacement mechanism;   said displacement mechanism ensuring rotation of said intermediate body about said axle.   
     
     
       13. A device as claimed in claim 11, comprising: at least one holder, whereon said source and said recipient are placed;   an axle connecting said holder to said displacement mechanism;   said displacement mechanism ensuring rotation of said holder about said axle.   
     
     
       14. A device as claimed in claim 11, comprising: a rod connecting said intermediate body to said displacement mechanism;   said displacement mechanism ensuring reciprocating motion of said intermediate body.   
     
     
       15. A device as claimed in claim 11, comprising: at least one holder, whereon said source and said recipient are placed;   a rod connecting said holder and a displacement mechanism;   said displacement mechanism ensuring progressive and reciprocating motion of said holder.
